杆状病毒转导不同哺乳动物骨髓来源间充质干细胞

杆状病毒作为一种新型基因载体,若能有效转导不同哺乳动物骨髓来源间充质干细胞(bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells, BMSCs),将会成为干细胞基因修饰研究领域中更理想的一种基因载体.本文探讨了重组杆状病毒(BacV-CMV-EGFP)对不同哺乳动物BMSCs的转导效率.体外原代培养小鼠、大鼠、猪、恒河猴及人的BMSCs.用培养3代以上的哺乳动物BMSCs进行病毒转导实验,转导2d后用倒置荧光显微镜观察绿色荧光蛋白在不同哺乳动物BMSCs中的表达,并用流式细胞仪检测重组杆状病毒对不同哺乳动物BMSCs的转导效率.结果显示:原代培养的小鼠、大鼠、猪、恒河猴及人的BMSCs于体外传代3次以上后,细胞呈现较均一的梭形,漩涡状生长;倒置荧光显微镜观察显示,与小鼠、大鼠、猪的BMSCs相比,恒河猴及人有更多BMSCs表达绿色荧光蛋白,且荧光强度较强;杆状病毒对小鼠、大鼠、猪、恒河猴及人的BMSCs的转导效率分别为(21.21±3.02)%、(22.51±4.48)%、(39.13±5.79)%、(71.16±5.36)%及(70.67±3.74)%.上述结果表明,重组杆状病毒对不同哺乳动物BMSCs的转导效率不同,对恒河猴及人的BMSCs转导效率较高,说明重组杆状病毒可作为人或灵长类动物BMSCs基因修饰研究领域中更理想的基因载体.

骨髓间充质干细胞抗肝纤维化的研究进展

肝纤维化及其终末病变肝硬化已严重危害全球人类健康,虽然慢性肝病的治疗手段和抗肝纤维化药物的研究已取得了很大进展,肝移植依然是最有效的治疗方案,但器官的紧缺却是一个现实问题。目前寻找有效的干预手段进行抗肝纤维化治疗已越来越受到大家的关注。近些年,大量基础及临床研究均证实在一定条件下利用骨髓间充质干细胞(MSCs)可以抑制肝星状细胞活化诱导其凋亡,实现肝纤维化逆转。随着干细胞技术的快速发展,基于骨髓间充质干细胞(MSCs)的细胞疗法在肝纤维化治疗领域的研究与应用已成为一个充满生命力的新方向。本文将对肝纤维化及基于MSCs的治疗机制进展及其应用进行综述。     

骨髓间充质干细胞向神经细胞分化的研究

无论是在体外实验、还是在体内实验,MSCs都可以向中枢神经系统(CNS)神经细胞分化,但争议颇多。因为功能性神经元不仅要具有典型神经元的形态、特异性标记,还要求具有可兴奋性、能和其他神经元形成突触联系、产生突触电位等,所以对于骨髓间充质干细胞是否能诱导出真正具有功能的神经元存在很大分歧。在此对MSCs向神经细胞诱导分化研究的现况、存在的问题及发展前景给以综述。

慢病毒载体感染成年食蟹猴骨髓间充质干细胞

骨髓间充质干细胞(Mesenchymal stem cells,MSCs)具有增殖和多向分化潜能,临床应用广泛,近年来备受关注。另一方面,MSCs易于转导和表达外源基因,是理想的基因工程细胞。非人灵长类(NHPs)和人类具有非常相近的遗传背景,NHPs模型在评价药物疗效和移植治疗等方面具有不可替代的价值。本研究采用密度梯度离心法分离成年食蟹猴骨髓单核细胞(Marrow mononuclear cells,MNCs),贴壁培养MSCs。同时构建表达绿色荧光蛋白(Green fluorescent protein,GFP)的慢病毒载体,感染成年食蟹猴MSCs。结果显示,体外培养的成年食蟹猴MSCs均感染猴泡沫病毒(Simian foamy virus,SFV),体外培养成年食蟹猴MSCs必须添加抗病毒药物Tenofovir。但由于食蟹猴MSCs感染SFV,以及培养中添加了抗病毒药物Tenofovir,慢病毒载体的感染效率明显降低(10%)。本研究通过停用抗病毒药,在细胞复苏后6d转染慢病毒,可大幅提高慢病毒的感染效率(50%)。为成年食蟹猴MSCs作为基因工程细胞应用于实验和临床研究提供了技术保证。

Repair mechanisms of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in myocardial infarction

The prognosis of patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and resultant chronic heart failure remains extremely poor despite advances in optimal medical therapy and interventional procedures. Animal experiments and clinical trials using adult stem cell therapy following MI have shown a global improvement of myocardial function. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold promise for cardiac repair following MI, due to their multilineage, self-renewal and proliferation potential. In addition, MSCs can be easily isolated, expanded in culture, and have immunoprivileged properties to the host tissue. Experimental studies and clinical trials have revealed that MSCs not only differentiate into cardiomyocytes and vascular cells, but also secrete amounts of growth factors and cytokines which may mediate endogenous regeneration via activation of resident cardiac stem cells and other stem cells, as well as induce neovascularization, anti-inflammation, anti-apoptosis, anti-remodelling and cardiac contractility in a paracrine manner. It has also been postulated that the anti-arrhythmic and cardiac nerve sprouting potential of MSCs may contribute to their beneficial effects in cardiac repair. Most molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in the MSC-based therapy after MI are still unclear at present. This article reviews the potential repair mechanisms of MSCs in the setting of MI.     

Proteomic profiling of distinct clonal populations of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have attracted immense research interest in the field of regenerative medicine due to their ability to be cultured for successive passages and multi‐lineage differentiation. The molecular mechanisms governing MSC self‐renewal and differentiation remain largely unknown. The development of sophisticated techniques, in particular clinical proteomics, has enabled researchers in various fields to identify and characterize cell specific biomarkers for therapeutic purposes. This study seeks to understand the cellular and sub‐cellular processes responsible for the existence of stem cell populations in bone marrow samples by revealing the whole cell proteome of the clonal cultures of bone marrow‐derived MSCs (BMSCs). Protein profiling of the MSC clonal populations was conducted by Two‐Dimensional Liquid Chromatography/Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionisation (MALDI) Mass Spectrometry (MS). A total of 83 proteins were identified with high confidence of which 11 showed differential expression between subpopulations, which included cytoskeletal and structural proteins, calcium binding proteins, cytokinetic proteins, and members of the intermediate filament family. This study generated a proteome reference map of BMSCs from the clonal populations, which will be valuable to better understand the underlying mechanism of BMSC self‐renewal and differentiation. J.

Full-thickness tissue engineered skin constructed with autogenic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

To explore the feasibility of repairing clinical cutaneous deficiency, autogenic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were isolated and differentiated into epidermal cells and fibroblasts in vitro supplemented with different inducing factors and biomaterials to construct functional tissueengineered skin. The results showed that after 72 h induction, BMSCs displayed morphologic changes such as typical epidermal cell arrangement, from spindle shape to round or oval; tonofibrils, melanosomes and keratohyaline granules were observed under a transmission electronic microscope. The differentiated cells expressed epidermal stem cell surface marker CK19 (59.66% ± 4.2%) and epidermal cells differentiation marker CK10. In addition, the induced epidermal cells acquired the anti-radiation capacity featured by lowered apoptosis following exposure to UVB. On the other hand, the collagen microfibrils deposition was noticed under a transmission electronic microscope after differentiating into dermis fibroblasts; RT-PCR identified collagen type I mRNA expression in differentiated cells; radioimmunoassay detected the secretion of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) (up to 115.06 pg/mL and 0.84 ng/mL, respectively). Further in vivo implanting BMSCs with scaffold material shortened skin wound repair significantly. In one word, autogenic BMSCs have the potential to differentiate into epidermal cells and fibroblasts in vitro, and show clinical feasibility acting as epidermis-like and dermis-like seed cells in skin engineering.
